Mohammed Kattan, the Saudi ambassador to Malaysia, and Fahd Muhammad Kafoud, Qatar’s ambassador to Malaysia, have submitted the necessary documents to the AFC headquarters in Kuala Lampur.

 

The 2023 edition will be held in China, after the decision of the General Assembly during its meeting held in Paris in June 2019.
